Benefits of technology

[0031]One embodiment of the present invention provides a display device with high visibility that is highly convenient, a display device with low power consumption, a display device with high color reproducibility, a display device with high reliability, a novel display device, a method for manufacturing a display device with high reliability, or a method for manufacturing a novel display device.
[0032]Note that the description of the effect does not disturb the existence of other effects. One embodiment of the present invention does not necessarily achieve all the effects listed above. Other effects will be apparent from and can be derived from the description of the specification, the drawings, the claims, and the like.

Problems solved by technology

A display device including a light-emitting element or a transmissive liquid crystal display element has a problem that the visibility is reduced when displaying images in a bright environment, such as under strong outside light.
In addition, when the display device outputs high luminance for high visibility in the bright environment, it consumes more power.
In contrast, a display device including a reflective liquid crystal display element has problems of dark display, low color reproducibility, and low visibility when displaying images in a dark environment.
There is also a problem that when a liquid crystal display element is formed over a substrate containing a low-heat-resistance material, it is difficult to increase the temperature for forming an alignment film which is necessary for the liquid crystal display element.

embodiment 1

[0097]In this embodiment, a display device of one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 19.

[0098]FIG. 1A is a bottom view illustrating the structure of a display device 300 of one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1B1 is a bottom view illustrating part of FIG. 1A. FIG. 1B2 is a bottom view omitting some components illustrated in FIG. 1B1.

[0099]FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C are cross-sectional views illustrating the structure of the display device 300 of one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2A is a cross-sectional view taken along dashed-dotted lines X1-X2, X3-X4, X5-X6, X7-X8, X9-X10, and X11-X12 in FIG. 1A. FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view illustrating part of the display device. FIG. 2C is a cross-sectional view illustrating other part of the display device.

[0100]FIG. 3 illustrates a circuit of a pixel 302 included in the display device 300 of one embodiment of the present invention.

[0101]As illustrated in FIG. 1A, the display ...

embodiment 2

[0447]In this embodiment, a transistor which can be used in a display device of one embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to FIGS. 20 to 34.

[0448]FIG. 20A is a top view of a transistor 200 that can be used in a display device of one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 20B is a cross-sectional view taken along a dashed-dotted line X1-X2 in FIG. 20A. FIG. 20C is a cross-sectional view taken along a dashed-dotted line Y1-Y2 in FIG. 20A. Note that in FIG. 20A, some components of the transistor 200 (e.g., an insulating film serving as a gate insulating film) are not illustrated to avoid complexity. Furthermore, the direction of the dashed-dotted line X1-X2 may be referred to as a channel length direction, and the direction of the dashed-dotted line Y1-Y2 may be referred to as a channel width direction. As in FIG. 20A, some components are not illustrated in some cases in top views of transistors described below.

[0449]The transistor 200 includes a conductive...

embodiment 3

[0636]In this embodiment, the structure and the like of an oxide semiconductor will be described with reference to FIGS. 35 to 39.

[0637]An oxide semiconductor is classified into a single crystal oxide semiconductor and a non-single-crystal oxide semiconductor. Examples of a non-single-crystal oxide semiconductor include a c-axis-aligned crystalline oxide semiconductor (CAAC-OS), a polycrystalline oxide semiconductor, a nanocrystalline oxide semiconductor (nc-OS), an amorphous-like oxide semiconductor (a-like OS), and an amorphous oxide semiconductor.

[0638]From another perspective, an oxide semiconductor is classified into an amorphous oxide semiconductor and a crystalline oxide semiconductor. Examples of a crystalline oxide semiconductor include a single crystal oxide semiconductor, a CAAC-OS, a polycrystalline oxide semiconductor, and an nc-OS.

[0639]An amorphous structure is generally thought to be isotropic and have no non-uniform structure, to be metastable and not have fixed pos...
